Abstract: A device includes a power antenna and a data antenna, along with a switch operable to selectively connect the data antenna to data circuitry under various conditions. For example, the switch may be opened to decouple the data antenna when charging circuitry is receiving power through the power antenna, or under other conditions indicating that charging may be available or desired, thereby allowing for relatively unimpeded and efficient wireless charging of a device. The switch may be closed to enable use of the data antenna by data circuitry when wireless charging activity is not present, or when other conditions indicate that wireless data is available for the device.

Abstract: The subject invention provides novel plants that are not only resistant to 2,4-D, but also to pyridyloxyacetate herbicides. Heretofore, there was no expectation or suggestion that a plant with both of these advantageous properties could be produced by the introduction of a single gene. The subject invention also includes plants that produce one or more enzymes of the subject invention “stacked” together with one or more other herbicide resistance genes. The subject invention enables novel combinations of herbicides to be used in new ways. Furthermore, the subject invention provides novel methods of preventing the development of, and controlling, strains of weeds that are resistant to one or more herbicides such as glyphosate. The preferred enzyme and gene for use according to the subject invention are referred to herein as AAD-12 (AryloxyAlkanoate Dioxygenase). This highly novel discovery is the basis of significant herbicide tolerant crop trait and selectable marker opportunities.

Abstract: A cycloidal magnetic gear system for a turbine system is disclosed. The system includes a first stator magnet ring, a second stator magnet ring positioned opposite the first stator magnet ring, and a rotor positioned between the first and second stator rings of magnets. The rotor may include a first side positioned adjacent the first stator magnet ring, and a second side positioned adjacent the second stator magnet ring. The system may include a first rotor magnet ring affixed to the first side of the rotor, adjacent the first stator magnet ring. Additionally, the system may include a second rotor magnet ring affixed to the second side of the rotor, adjacent the second stator magnet ring. The rotor may be configured to rotate eccentrically about a center-axis of the first and/or second stator magnet ring.

Abstract: Hydrokinetic fluid turbines utilize a flowing body of liquid to translate the kinetic energy of the fluid into electric power or other useful energy. The available kinetic energy is proportional to the squared fluid velocity in an open channel with a fixed cross-sectional area. The proposed twin turbine system coupled with a cycloidal magnetic gear exploits the hydrokinetic energy existing in open-channels.

Abstract: This invention is related to methods for improving plant height and/or yield of crop plants that are resistant to herbicide 2,4-D by treating the plants with 2,4-D at application rates which are not harmful to the plants. In particular, provided is a method using 2,4-D application to increase yield of crop plants that express an AAD-12 gene for 2,4-D resistance. Soybeans are a preferred crop for use according to the subject invention.
